Frequently Asked Questions
What is a network sensor in the context of XDR?
A network sensor is a component that monitors network traffic for suspicious activity. In an XDR solution, it provides visibility into threats that may be moving laterally within your network or originating from network-based attacks.
How does the network sensor differ from endpoint protection?
Endpoint protection focuses on securing individual devices like computers and servers. A network sensor analyzes the traffic flowing between devices, detecting threats that might not be visible at the endpoint level.
Is this a cloud-based or on-premises solution?
The Bitdefender XDR Network Sensor is a software component deployed within your network, but it reports to and is managed by the cloud-based Bitdefender XDR platform.
